Really? The pilot profit sharing check comes twice a year, this is the third one total. Or were you referring to the amount?

Anyone know whether there is an E175 class starting in Nov, and if so what date?

There are three days of sim, then you'll observe some Aspen flights, then some OE with a LCA. Once you are signed off, you'll be able to bid. Bidding is done with hard lines. You get an email with a PDF and you email the lines you want in order of preference. You fly with the same captain for the whole month if you are a line holder (with the exception of swaps/drops/trades/etc).

I have a November 10th class date for the Ejet.

Anyone know if new hire training happens during Christmas week (Sunday, December 25-->Sunday, January 1)?

Skywest doesn't pay for the interview motel ? at least that's what the email said...

They don't, they should, most never did.
Things are getting pushed towards better.

Typically, yes. You'll probably get Christmas and maybe NYD off since the instructors are somewhat senior and don't want to work those days. SIM will run every day of the year. This is normal for all airlines.
